[QUOTE="mshrout, post: 1451433, member: 98055"] ditto what infrared suggested. if you determine it is a leak, appears most likely the input shaft seal to the rearend. in auto terms, this would be the pinion seal. its easy to get to and make additional inspection. remove rear wheel and unbolt those 4 nuts, and very gently remove the rear end off the shaft. now you can make a further inspection on the rear end alone. if the seal is wet, then you can either replace the seal yourself or take the unit to a bike shop with part and they can install for you. don’t forget to drain rear end and refill . check the parts fiche on any bike internet site. I usually use RMATV for my go to parts, it will be under OEM Parts. good luck. [/QUOTE]
